Now with the wiring removed from the back of the alternator we can start with the actual removal of the unit. Firstly we need to get the fan belt off the alternator, this can be done by loosening the bolt at the top of the alternator which is attached to the bracket which goes back to the motor. Once that bracket is loosened you can lever the alternator towards the motor which will lower the tension on the fan belt and allow you to remove it.
